Pat Fenlon 1/3 with bookies
I think its fairly obvious he will have a role to play until at least the end of the season, whether as DoF overseeing a more inexperienced manager/head coach or as the main man.

Looking forward to the bitter, back-handed comments from Flitcroft in his Mansfield press conference. Prediction:

Bigger club
Issues with Swindon fans
Want to focus on getting Mansfield up
Great set up here
Club on the up
Any other cliches he used for us a few months ago!
Took Swindon as far as he could with his hands tied by the owner, closer to his roots, Evans big shoes to fill etc etc

We lost both games under Ward/Miller after Paolo resigned and there were probably many of the squad glad to see the back of him. And then KMac’s results were pretty patchy too.
Whoever we appoint, I hope it’s someone who gets the supporter base excited/enthusiastic rather than one of the hasbeens from the management merry go round.

Unrealistic appointment - I’d like Daryl Clarke (Bristol Rovers) but they are a league above and have new mega rich owners.
Realistically - Uwe Rosler. Free agent, did a stellar job at Brentford, oozes authority.

Thinking about it, I'd go for something super short term, proven at getting over the line. Just get the job done and reevaluate in the summer with a long-term option like Luke Garrard.

I don't know who that person is though.

Now is not the time for a long-term, high-profile first jobber.

Would imagine we're unable to do that as part of the compensation package.

That being the case, I think we can see that this has been coming for a while. As Fenlon was talking about moving on from Waterford to take on an overseas project for Power a couple of weeks ago.

That being the case, he must have had time to think about it and prepare for it. Its not as if it was news to him, Flitcroft, Power et al 12 hours ago.

Bottom line is that 'it is what it is' and we have to get on with it. Many of the players will still be motivated as they are playing for contracts.

This may have been asked, but do we get any money for this?
